Chapter 449 This Scene Happened 40 Years Earlier
In early November 1980, a train on the Beijing-Shanghai line slowly pulled into the Pujiang Railway Station.
Looking at the people coming and going outside the window, Huang Yongyu on the train recalled the messy appearance of the Yanjing Railway Station.
Just a few days before they set off, the Yanjing Railway Station had just suffered a catastrophe.
Although it had been several days since they saw it.
But the shocking things left in the station still made them panic.
On October 29, 1980, a bomb was set off at the Yanjing Railway Station.
Several people were injured and killed at once.
When this happened, people all over the country were shocked.
In the next few days, as long as there was some noise somewhere, it would still scare away a large number of people.
The detailed cause of the accident has not been found out yet.
Each newspaper can only reprint an article based on the report in the People's Daily.
"Uncle Yongyu,"
Not long after the train stopped, Huang Yongyu heard a familiar voice: "Look here."
"Xiao Jiang,"
Huang Yongyu looked over there: "Hey, Fatty and Xiao Yuer are here too."
"Hello, Grandpa Huang~"
On the platform, the three uncles and nephews were laughing like a pot of flowers.
At this moment, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, five smiling faces appeared beside the window.
Although they all had wrinkles on their faces, they looked happier than the other.
"Xiao Jiang,"
"Xiao Yu,"
"Jiang Shan,"
"Fatty,"
"We are here again..."
Jiang Shan, Xiao Yu and Xiao Bai looked at the five old comrades lying in the window together, laughing happier than each other.
"Come on, give me all the luggage..."
Comrade Jiang Shan, who did not struggle hard, even pulled the cart of the newspaper printing factory before coming to the train station.
As a result, it turned out that the five old comrades did not bring much stuff with them.
But they brought him a hard item.
"Did you hear that?" Huang Yongyu knocked on a table for Wang Shixiang.
"The table is made of huanghuali wood?"
Jiangshan saw it: "Why did you carry it all the way here?"
"It's out there,"
Wang Shixiang took it personally and carefully put it on the cart: "This is called a piano table, you can also call it a piano stand."
"Oh~" Jiangshan smiled and touched Jiang Xiaoyu's little head, knowing who this thing was for.
"In the past, this was an indispensable item in the study,"
Wang Shixiang looked at the piano table with a sense of accomplishment: "How about it, doesn't it look good?"
Jiangshan looked up and down: "Did you find it?"
"Three shoulders touching, four sides flat,"
Zhu Jiaqi knocked on the table: "Simple and straightforward, your uncle Shixiang has a good eye."
"That must be right,"
Jiangshan smiled and said: "It's just hard work for you uncles!"
People coming and going on the platform, when passing by these people, they will not take a second look.
"Jiangshan,"
Only one comrade waved at them: "You are also on this bus, what a coincidence!"
At this moment, Huang Yongyu, who was already holding Jiang Xiaobai, looked back and his eyes immediately widened: "Oh, isn't that someone!"
"Hey,"
Zhu Jiaqi turned back and was also surprised: "It's really that someone!"
At this time, including Wang Shixiang, Qi Gong, and Xu Bangda, all looked in the same direction in surprise.
Not far away, two or three carriages apart.
Comrade Zhang Lu from Pujiang TV Station was accompanying Ma Sanli, Hou Baolin, Hou Yaowen, Shi Fukuan...
A group of crosstalk actors walked towards them according to seniority.
Although these few waited until all the passengers got off the bus before getting up.
But at this moment, the crowd on the platform still surrounded them.
In this era, in the eyes of the masses, crosstalk is far more popular than filming.
After finally escaping the train station with each other, several crosstalk masters quickly got into the TV station's van.
At the same time, Jiangshan's van was also ready to leave.
"Jiangshan,"
When passing by Delica, Zhang Lu stuck his head out and greeted Jiangshan:
"We're leaving first. Call me if you have anything."
"Okay, no problem!"
In Jiangshan's van, all the old comrades looked at the comedian in the opposite car with joy.
After the two sides waved politely, they drove off in different directions.
"Did you pick them all up?"
Huang Yongyu pointed out the window with a beaming face: "No wonder you said you can have as much crosstalk as you want!"
Although he hadn't heard a single crosstalk, Zhu Jiahui was already excited.
"Luckily we came along this time," he said, looking at Qigong and Xu Bangda and smiling, "otherwise we would have missed another good show."
Qigong, who was holding Xiaobai, smiled even more:
"I've said it before, it doesn't matter if it's someone else, as long as it's Xiaojiang's party, I must participate."
Xu Bangda, who was sitting next to him, thought of the past at this moment: "I can't miss it again no matter what."
...
After meeting again after a long time, Jiangshan was in a good mood at this moment.
He stepped on the accelerator and took the five old comrades directly to the newspaper's guesthouse.
"Oh, I didn't realize it,"
After getting off the car, Huang Yongyu looked up at the door of the guesthouse: "Your newspaper actually has a guesthouse."
"It looks good, right?"
Jiang Shan, who was carrying his luggage, raised his head with him: "This guest house is specially prepared for you."
"Specially prepared for us?" Huang Yongyu laughed: "Who believes it?"
"That's right," Wang Shixiang was also laughing: "How can we have such a big reputation?"
"If you don't believe me, go in and inquire,"
Jiang Shan raised his feet and climbed up the steps: "A week ago, the door of this guest house was still closed."
"It looks pretty new,"
Qi Gong really believed it: "Maybe the door was opened just for us."
"Um,"
Zhu Jiazhu looked at the brand-new front door and walked in: "Xiao Jiang, which room should I live in?"
Huang Yongyu, who was looking up, quickly followed in after hearing this: "Xiao Jiang, I want a room with a balcony..."
…
It was only a few days apart.
Twelve comrades including Pan Hong, Liu Xiaoqing, Zhu Lin, Zhang Yu, Tang Guoqiang, and Chen Peisi received a remittance notice from Oriental Metropolis Daily.
In addition, there is a brown paper package.
After looking at the 50 yuan remittance slip in her hand with joy in her eyes, Zhu Lin quickly opened the package on the table.
After opening it, I saw that in addition to a thick wall calendar, there was also a small gift box.
"Ah, is this...?"
In the previous phone call, Oriental Metropolis Daily had informed Zhu Lin about publishing the calendar.
As promised on the phone, the newspaper will pay her a remuneration equivalent to one month's salary.
But the small box that appeared was not mentioned on the phone.
"what is this?"
In the dormitory of Yanjing Film Academy, Li Qinqin from a class gathered around curiously: "Open it quickly and see what it is..."
Meanwhile on the other side.
Chen Peisi also went home holding a package.
Take it apart and take a look at three times five divided by two.
"Hey, this little thing is interesting!"
It turned out that Comrade Jiangshan, who was far away in Pujiang, sent each of the 12 actors who attended the calendar a McDonald's French fries lamp.
Although the gadgets are not valuable, they are still very fashionable in this era.
…
1980, late autumn.
A heavy rain drenched the entire city of Tokyo.
BMW, which has been ordered to fully enter the Japanese market next year, is preparing for further attacks.
In the past few days, BMW executives have flown to Tokyo to inspect the progress.
Not long after checking into the hotel, I was fascinated by several advertisements on TV.
【I wonder how, I wonder why;
Yesterday you told me about the blue blue sky;
And all that I can see;
Is just a yellow lemon tree
...]
With the cheerful English song "Lemon Tree", the adults on the TV were dancing with their own trumpets in the mirror.
"What song is this?"
"I don't know, I've never heard of it before."
"sounds amazing!"
Just halfway through the commercial, several BMW executives were attracted by the singing on the TV.
"Look, you guys, this is actually an advertisement."
"Laoshan mineral water?"
It wasn't until the end that they realized it was just an advertisement.
"Japanese advertising is really creative."
"Did you not see clearly just now? That bottle of water is from China."
Just after the discussion here, another advertisement popped up on the TV.
The brand played this time was McDonald's, which they were all familiar with.
But the advertisement changes from the usual barbecue and frying style.
Starting from the beginning, there are groups of lively and cute cartoon characters.
Watch this group of human-looking cartoon characters paying and picking up food in front of the McDonald's window just like them.
Several BMW executives in the guest room were amused by this unique sight.
"Why is this advertisement different from the one in our country?"
"I heard that McDonald's is actually a fast food restaurant that you can franchise."
"That is to say, the bosses are different in every country."
"I see."
Although I knew before coming here that life in Tokyo was no worse than theirs.
But they really said: "I didn't expect that Japanese advertisements are so attractive."
"Aren't we going to advertise next time?"
"I'll ask the locals at the branch later to find out who produced these advertisements. Which company is it?"
"This is a good idea. The local car dealers in Japan are quite powerful.
If we at BMW want to successfully enter the Japanese market, we must first find a very powerful advertising company. "
After all, the principle of "buying and selling depends on shouting" applies to the whole world.
Just as he was talking, another Toyota commercial popped up on the TV in front of him...
…
Just when the BMW team was sitting in front of the TV watching commercials.
A dozen buses in Tokyo City were already boiling with excitement.
Since Laoshan mineral water landed in the Japanese market, it will pop up every few days to confirm its existence.
At the same time that the two commercials "Return to Youth" and "Nature's Porter" were launched one after another,
Straw billboards, subway entrance ads, bus ads... never stopped.
After a while, the famous Laoshan mineral water quickly occupied a considerable share of the Japanese drinking water market.
Apart from other things, the Chinese-style glass bottle is enough for the local people to treasure for a while.
And today, Laoshan mineral water gave the passengers on the bus a surprise they had never seen before.
The sudden drop in temperature caused a layer of mist to appear on every car on the road.
The winter wind of Laoshan mineral water finally came.
"Look,"
a middle school student who had just got on the bus for a while suddenly pointed to a window and shouted: "What is that?"
The female classmates standing next to her looked in the direction of her finger.
On the glass window covered with a thin layer of mist, several lines of Japanese advertising text appeared.
[The weather is cold, Laoshan mineral water reminds you: put on more clothes when you go out. ]
"Look, there is also a window behind..."
Just after looking at this window, he looked at the other window again.
[It's raining, Laoshan Mineral Water reminds all passengers to go home and collect clothes. ]
"It's Laoshan Mineral Water again."
"This is really fun."
"Who drew them?"
"It didn't appear when I got on the bus."
"Obviously, these should all be Laoshan Mineral Water advertisements..."
Just as several female middle school students were dancing and jumping like they had found treasures,
several other buses were also playing the same plot.
Watching the window that was blank a second ago slowly reveal its true form.
The passengers in the car were all shocked by this wonderful scene in front of them...
Several reporters who happened to be sitting in the car quickly took pictures of this scene.
...
Just like in the previous life, even though they had seen countless advertisements.
But when the masses saw the advertisements quietly appearing on the bus windows, they still exclaimed.
And it was this simple scene that made the passengers who saw it happy for several days in a row.
Now to this day, Jiangshan has brought this scene forward by 40 years for Laoshan Mineral Water.
Whenever the temperature drops, the condensed water vapor on the glass window will be tempting to scratch a few times.
Writing and drawing are all for fun.
In 2021, Japan's Asahi TV cleverly used this physical phenomenon.
Something called "anti-condensation" was applied to six buses in Tokyo in advance.
["Weathering with You" Asahi series broadcast. ]
The purpose is to advertise the upcoming "Weathering with You".
For this reason, Yu Sigui's team followed the guidance of the weather forecast during the rehearsal of "Super Change".
On the day before the big drop in temperature, I boarded the bus and did some tricks.
At this moment, the bus driver driving in front was enjoying this scene in the rearview mirror.
Maybe because of the rain, there are quite a lot of passengers on the bus today.
Speaking of which, since the bus I am responsible for was painted with the advertisement of "Laoshan Mineral Water".
It feels that many passengers come here specifically for this bus.
Whether it is the story behind the seat or the mineral water "bottle" on the armrest...
Small advertisements have become the characteristics of this car.
Now with the addition of a window feature, it is estimated that this car will be fun again this winter.
...
"Anti-condensation" has been mass-produced in the 1960s.
In the 1970s, anti-condensation exterior wall paint also appeared.
Compared with Europe, Japan's formula in this regard is 10% stronger.
Especially in the military, the varieties are complete and numerous.
It's a coincidence.
Just when Pujiang's "Spring Festival Gala" was about to start filming.
Several staff members of the Sixth Machine Department also went to the Kailin Paint Factory in Pujiang for the external insulating paint of warships.
